Chapter 121 Aliyah Won't Need A New Mate

• Sean and Steven fell on the ground as soon as the smoke released them and Malachi and Damien picked themselves up. Damien shook himself, freeing his furs of death and Irene finally put down her shield.
• Edward’s eyes stopped burning and returned to their natural midnight blue as he rushed Rasmus who was holding an unconscious Aliyah. He took her from Rasmus and cradled her face and for the first time since that night, his face revealed warmth as he leaned over and kissed her forehead. However, he sensed something ruining his sweet reunion with her, a flicker of light on his mating mark which was always a sign that a mate is dying. His eyes turned urgent immediately as he glanced at the sleeping girl and started shaking her to wake her up.
• “Oh no,” Irene screamed and rushed to them, “what have they done?” she picked Aliyah’s hand as she knelt beside her. “They have numbed him,” she said and turned to Edward, “they have numbed his powers. His heartbeat is slowing and if he dies, Aliyah will die too just like he would if she dies. In otherwise we can’t save one without saving the other, both of them must live for one cannot and will not survive without the other, the cord is binding them and it’s strong. It’s the reason he can send his powers to her to protect her because protecting her means protecting himself.”
